Breon Allen said he still needs to clear some things up with academic paperwork and the Pittsburgh coaches

Breon Allen has had a lot on his mind lately, especially since Friday night.

Central Florida's leading rusher heading into Friday night's action with 997 yards in seven games injured his knee near the end of the first quarter of South Daytona Beach Warner Christian's 42-6 rout of Calvary Christian. He left the game with 1:54 left in the first and did not return.

"We won't know much until I go to the orthopedist tomorrow," Allen said Sunday night. "It feels OK. It's like a dull pain, not throbbing or nothing like that."

Allen (5-foot-7, 170 pounds) said that even if he gets the OK to play, he may sit the final game of the regular season and get ready for the playoffs. Warner also has a bye this week. If Allen misses the final game against Florida Air, it will mean no showdown between two of the most dynamic little running backs in Central Florida in Allen and Florida Air Academy's J.J. Keels (5-10, 182), who has committed to Vanderbilt.

Warner has already clinched the Class 1B, District 3 title and can afford to let Allen sit.

"Things have been kinda burning me out anyway," Allen said of football and the whole recruiting process, which includes his recent chore of filing transcripts with the NCAA Clearing House. "I just know football isn't going to be there forever, so I was just thinking about stuff. But I'm gonna come back strong. I know my team is fine when I'm not out there, like they showed Friday night, but I'll be back out there."

As for his commitment to Pittsburgh, which he made July 17, things are somewhat up in the air. Allen said he should have everything filed to the University of Pittsburgh and has been cleared by the NCAA Clearing House.

"I've been talking to them a lot," Allen said of the Pitt staff. "Talking to them about the clearing house ... talking about academics. So it's not a full commitment yet. I just have to keep talking to coach see how everything is.

"But I still plan to go there. I'm just in no rush and I want to let things come to me. We talked about it ... they want me to come see the school and everything."

Allen has yet to take an official vist or set any dates. He's also getting interest from Bethune-Cookman College and Tennessee-Chattanooga

Warner Christian has been to the state title game at the Citrus Bowl for two straight years.

"Might as well be three," Allen said.

Warner lost to Jupiter Christian and Belle Glade Glades Day in the the past two 1B title games.

Allen said he now has 69 carries for 1029 yards and 14 TDs and six catches for 126 yards and three touchdowns.
